Ben Steele ?


The word from WITHIN the club this afternoon is he has gone A.W.O.L


His phone is off and nobody can contact him.

The players were told that the money he was investing would be in the clubs account today, but it has not arrived yet.

Peter Ridsdale is shaking :lol:

Allegedly did something similar at Southampton. Allegedly as soon as he was asked to show the colour of his money they didn't see his ass for dust. Did he come here for a jolly last week do you think? :lol:

How credible is this source though? I can't imagine if it was true that Ridsdale or whoever was dealing with it would let too many people know about it. Not really what he wants to be leaked is it

He was never considered a front runner as i posted before on here - he was just making up the numbers of the also rans

I know beggers cant be choosers but the deal has never sounded right from the begining

I think it was a smokescreen by the Riddler to fluch out the malaysians or the americans to buy the club at a premium price - They will both see through this so will make the riddler look even more imcompetent

Got to agree with Dobbin, all the hallmarks of what (allegedly) happened at Southampton.

Being the good natured people we are though lets give him the benefit of the doubt for a few more days

hes slipped into peters pocket, nessled inside his wallet, and bedded himself in amongst a wod of £50 notes, as peter hasnt got his wallet out since hes been at cardiff (apart from to gather his bonus) my guess is we'll never see ben steele again :D

They wanted a cash deal at Soton and weren't worried about Due Dilligence. :lol: Sort of sums him up as a REAL candidate.
